In the days of Prohibition, flamboyant flappers wanted to be glamorous. In dimly lit speakeasies, these flappers’ dresses became shorter and their necklaces longer as they reveled in their feminine independence.

We’re embracing that tradition with our Aquamarine Speakeasy Ring, a stunning statement piece with a massive 13-carat cabochon of aquamarine in its center.

Surrounded by rounds of tanzanite, amethyst and sky-blue topaz, this ring is sure to draw the room’s attention
